CONTINUED FROM YESTERDAY. In rlne time Governor Wilson Shannon mnrte the appointments required utulor Senator Smith's resolution, nml in fiocordnnce with the law Authorizing a Bonrd of Equalization, llio gentlemen who had accepted met at Columbus on the 25lli day of January, 1841. Meantime, liowevor, an election for members of the Legislature and Slate officers bad taken place. Thomas Corwin had been chosen Governor, and ft majority of the members of the House wero Whigs, while a majority of tho Senators were Democrats. On the 18th of January, James T. Worlhing-ton ofstfon ooAinty, moved that the Governor bo authorized to (ill all vacancies which hnd occurred, or might oocur, in tho Board of Equalization. That motion, at the suggestion of Crawford Welch of lielmont, was amended so as to instruct the Judiciary committee to inquire into the expediency of reporting a bill to legalize the appointments which Governor Shannon had made on the 1st of January. Albert A. Bliss of Lorain, chairman of the Judiciary eommittee, reported a hill constituting a Board of Equalization, which confirmed I he appointments of members who had nccepted, and tilled two vacancies. That bill was warmly discussed. Speeches were made upon it, which excited bitter remarks, on questions involving many political differences, but on the 2,3th of January it passed the House by a vote of 35 lo 33. When it went to t lie Senate it was referred lo the Judiciary committee. On the 11th of February William I. Thomas, of Miami, chairman of that committee, reported it back with amendments, among which was one increasing the amount ($2 per day,) which had been fixed by the law of 18-10 as the pay of the members of the Board. Tho report was accepted, and the next day the Setate passed the bill as amended, by a vote of 23 to 9. The amendment providing for an increase of pay was in accordance with n memorial sent to the Legislature on motion of Felix Kentck, of Koss county, praying for wages "more adequate to the responsible and arduous duties" required from members of the Board, which notwithitanditig the tribulation in the Legislature respecting it, was regularly in session. The House promptly rejected the Senate's amendments, by a vote of 4'J lo 12. The Senate insisted the House adhered and asked for a committee of conference. This requeot the Senate granted. George W. Holmes of Hamilton county, and William I. Thomas of Miami, represented the Senate, and Wm. L. Perkins of Lake, Charles Brough of Fairfield, and A. A. Bliss of Lorain, the House. They could not agree. Each committee reported lo its respect ive department, in favor of adhorance to the positions which had been taken, and both reports were accepted. Thereupon the Board of Equalization, ctvntcd under tho resolution of M ircli21sl, 1810. was permitted to continue its deliberations without Legislative interference of any kind. It was composed us follows: THIRD BOARD OF EQUALIZATION. For the Senatorial District composed of the counties of Cuyahoga, James S. Clark; Columbiana nnd Carroll, Fisher A. Blocksom ; Geauga und Ashtabula, Daniel J. French; Richland, Geo. W. Bull; Jetfetson, John S. Cock; Belmont, Robert II. Miller; Muskingum, Robert Mitchell; 1'erry. Morgan and Washington, Samuel A. Barker; Franklin aud Pickaway, William Gill; Ross, Pike and Jaokson. Felix Ronick; Athens, Meigs, Lawrenoo and Gallia, George House; Sciolo, Brown and Adams, William Rohbins; Clermont, Thomas J. Buchanan; Highland and Clinton, Jaoob Hoagland; Clark, Logan and Champaign, John Shelly ; Hamilton, I). T. Disney und L. M. Gwynne; Medina and Lorain, Edwin Byington; Huron, Ebenczer Warner; Trum-b tll,Eli Bald wine;Poit rgylo-eph Lyman; Wayne, Benjamin Jones; Knox, Coshocton and Holmes; II. U. Curtis; Tuscarawas and Harrison, James Miller; Licking, John Youtz; Fairfield and Hocking, William McClung; Warren, John Woods; Butler and Preble, George Keeling; Fayette, Madison and Green, Aaron Harlan; Stark, Alexander MoCully; Medina, Darke aud Mercer, John S. Mallory; Marion, Delaware, Crawford and Union, Oeo. W, Sharp; Seneca and Sandusky, Philip J. Price; Montgomery, JefTerson Patterson; Guernsey and Monroe, William Armstrong; Williams, Lucas, &o., S. S. Sprnguo. Auditor of Slate, John Brough. Armstrong, Rcnick, Harlan, Gwynne, Woods nnd Curtis were appointed by Governor Thos. Oorwin to fill vacancies. The meetings of this Board wero held in the Court House. David T. Disney was elected President, and John Breugh Soorelary. Amotion to elect a Sergeant-atArms, made hy Mr. McCully, was voted down, but, on motion of Mr. Keeling, James S. White was chosen Doorkeeper, "with pay the same as that of the members." On the 215th of January a committee, composed of Mr. Buchanan, Mr. House, Mr. Jones, Mr. Barker, and Mr.Blocksom, reported rules, which were aoccpted. A committco, of which Mr. Barker, Mr. Kesling, Mr. lleniok, Mr. Lyman, and Mr. Sprague, were the members, on the 2d of February, recommended Franklin county as a standard for the graduation of values. Their recommendation was accepted, and the returns from the County Bo irds were taken up In the alphabet!,! order of the counties. When the abstracts, as equalized for the counties, hnd been agreed upon, by a vote of 28 to 7, Mr. Curtis moved to make the aggregate $100,- 000,000, which was adopted. Mr. Brough wished town property excluded from the effuct of that motion. A proposition for that purpose was rejected. Mr. Curtis suggested a committee of three to deduct lo per cent, from the valuation in each county rejected by a vole of 17 to 18. Mr. Warner then moved that the origin al aggregate as given from the abstracts, be agreed upon, and Mr. Curtis' resolution be re- ciuded, which wus adopted by 18 lo 17. The opposition to this motion was vigorous, and at a subsequent meeting, Mr. McCully moved a select committee to reduce the aggregate 15 per cent., which prevailed by a vote o' 20 lo Hi. .McUilly, lortzand turns were appointed tbat committee. Mr. Brough then presented a pro test, from wlncli it is proper to make a brief extract: PROTEST. "The undersigned respectfully protest against the resolution of this Board lo reduce 15 per cent, upon the aggregate valuation of real estate in he slate of Ohio, as raised by tho Board, from ninety-five to one hundred and Bixteeu millions, for tho reason that it is calculated to render more unjust and unequal our already ill-balan ced system of taxation. "It injures all holders of personal property made taxable by law, whether landholders or not, inasmuch as that class of property being uppraised at very nearly if not quite its actual cash value, pays a greater proportion of taxes than the lauded esiato which is valued nt from one-eighlh to one-third its actual worth, and this is proven from the fact appearing upon the public record, that in the last year the personal property which does not hold ratio of value as one to twenty with the real estate, paid nearly oue lourtu ot the taxes levied by the State. "It reduces at the same time, and in the ratio, the tax upon the luxuries of the State, tho Biately dwellings upon farms, and the princ-ly mansions in towns und cities, which aro appraised nt the low rates affixed upon the lands, and imposes the burthens created upon the less fortunate and poorer classes of community, by taxing at full value (he necessaries of life in the cattle with which the earth is tilled; it is a reduction for the benefit of the rich at the expense of the poor for the advantngo of lnxury, to the injury of the rcul log cabin anterestsof the State." This protest was signed by R. II. Miller, Geo. Kesling, Jas. C. Hoagland, Jas. Lyman, Jas. Miller, John Brough, Auditor of Stale, John Woods, Wm. Armstrong, Juo. S. Cock, A. Ilarlun, Geo. Houso. The report of the commit tee appointed to make the 15 percent reduction, against which tho gentlemen just named protested, was adopted by a vote of '22 to 11, late at night on tho 22d of February. A recess was taken till o o clock the next morning, when, in a few minutes, the bus-ines of the Board was finished and it adjourned, having been in session 21 days. One of its latest acts was to reject a proposition involving a reflection upon the House of Representatives, which refused to increase tho pay of members. Mr. Bull offered Iho following: Resolved, That the Board acknowledge with profound gratitude, the receipt from the State Treasury, of the very liberal compensation, provided by law for their services. Resolved, That we will ap rove the passage of law providing a similar compensation for the services of members of other deliberative assemblies.On motion of Mr. Tontz, the resolutions were indefinitely postponed. The following statement exhibits the result of he labors of the Board. It is not as complete ns the previous statements, but contains all the aggregates, which the Board authorized to be published with its proceedings. THIRD VALUATION.

On the fourth day of December, 1815, Alfred Kelly, member of Ihe Senate for Franklin, Madison and Clark counties, moved that, whereas, to pay expenses of Government; to pay the interest on the public debt; and to support common schools, imposed heavy taxes, and as the existing system operated unjustly, and with gross inequality, therefore the General Assembly should resolve that it was expedient to adopt a system which would impose on both real and personal property, according to its true value, on equal per centum of taxation. On motion of Dowty Utter of Brown and Clermont, Mr. Kelley's resolution was so amended that it included "loans of banking institu tions," and was then i dnpted by a vote of 21 to 13. The Finance committee of the Senate was composed of Alfred Kelley of Franklin, F. W Thornhill of Guernsey and Coshocton, Amos E. Wood of Sandusky, Seneca and Crawford, Levi Cox of Wayne, and John Welsh of Athens aud Meigs counties, senate bill No, U5, "for levying taxes on all the property of the Stale according to its true value,. wits reported by Mr. Kelley, on the 6th of Janu ary, 1840. It was elaborately discussed, and was the text for searching reviews of Ihe tax policy of tho Slate in the public journals, as well us in tlie Legislature, uti i tie tain nt reo-ruary, after having been amended in many par-1 tioulars, it was adopted by the Senale yeas 17, f nays lo. On tho tame day it was read I ho first lime in the House, was briefly discussed in committee of the whole, nnd whs referred to the Finance committee, which comprised Benjamin S. Cowen of Belmont, Edsou B. Olds of Pickaway, David Harvey of Cuyahoga, Charles Reem-elin of Hamilton, and Timothy R. Stanley of Scioto and Lawrence. This committeo recommended amendments, which the House approved, and on the 24th of February it adopted the amended bill by a vote of 85 to 20. The Senate was not pleased with the Houso amendments; committees of conference were accordingly usked for, Bnd appointed for the Senate, Kelley, Welch and Thornhill for the House, Cowen, Stanley, and Reenieliu. They agreed upon a compromise, to which both Houses consented on the 27th of February. " Kelley's Tax1 Bill" became a law on tho 2d day of March, 1846. It provided that a Slate Board of Equalization should be appointed by the Legislature then i.t session ihnt Board to consist of some competent and suitable pet son in each Senatorial d strict, who had been a resident of tho Slate ten years, and of the disiriol five years. Thirty days after their appointment the members were to be notified by the Governor, who was authorized to fill all vacancies. The Auditor of State wus declared lo bo tx-officxo a member. This Board was required to meet nt Columbus on the fourth Monday of October, 1840. The members were each to take nn oath to discharge their dmy faithfully, nnd were forbidden to raiBe or reduce the value of poperty more than $5,000,-0110, as contained in the abstracts returned lo the State Auditor from County Boards of Equal ization which were to consist of the County Commissioners, the Auditor, and Lhelriot Asses, sors. The members of the Stale Board were to be paid $2 per day while in session, and $2 for every twenty five miles traveled by them to and from I lie Capital. It was further provided in the law that overy sixth year aflor 1840, tho property of the Slate should be equalized. On Saturday, February 28th, 1840, Alfred Kelly presented a resolution to the Senate for the appointment or a state board of bqualiza-lion. From the list of names which he proposed, Senator Thornhill moved lo strike out that of John Hull, of Guernsey county, and insert Jesse Meredith, of Coshooton; which motion was adop- NUMBER 194. r- . - , - -j ted. Mr. Kelly's resolution was then approved. When it was taken up in the House, T. W. Tipton, of Guernsey county, moved to restore the name of John Hall. Mr. Tipton's motion did not prevail. Joseph Will-ford of Wayne county, moved to strike out the name of Cyrus Spink and insert tbat of Henry Swarlz; which was adopted. Subsequently Mr. Spink's name was restored, nnd tbat of J. M. Bell Inserted in the place of John Hall. In his message to Ihe General Assembly, Deo. 1st, 1840, Governor Mordecai Bartley commended the principle of the revenue system, but thought the law of 1840 defective in some of its points. He thought the revenue system "ought not to hecomo a matter of controversy between the political parties in Ihe Slate, nor a ground for a struggle between the holders of different classes of property." roVRTIt IOABD or tqVAMZATtON, Allen Trlnihle Highland county.

According to law, these gentlemen met in the Senate chamber, on the 20th day of October, 1840, look the prescribed oath of offioe and proceeded lo business. John Johnston was chosen temporary Chairman. On motion of Mr. Vance, the Board then elected a permanent Chairman Allen Trimble being chosen on the second ballot. John Woods was elected Secretary. Tho rules of the Slate Senate were adopted for the government of the Buard, and it then proceeded to consider the abstracts laid before it by the Auditor of State. On the 10th of November, Mr. Millikin moved that a committee of seven be appointed to report a plan on whioh the property of the State should be equalized. His motion was adopted, nnd Vinton, Spangler, Stillwell, Leonard, Boll, Este, and Webb were appointed said committee. Mr. Vinton reported on tho following day. On motion of Mr. Woods, the report was amended so that the Board declared that when the valuation was fixed upon the lands of eaoh county, the total increase or decrease upon lands, should be added or deducted from the aggregate of the valuation of the lands and towns, as returned, and the per cent, of such increase or decrease upon the whole real property of the county, should be taken as tho per cent, of the increase or decrease to be added or deducted from the whole real property of the county, as returned. After much discussion, it was resolved, on the 14th i f November, ou motion of Mr. Miller, that the Secretary should make a calculation for per cents to be added or deducted which would make tho total valuo of real property 5123,000,000, "as noarns might be without leaving a fractional per cent in any ouse." These calculations were duly made and approved, and the Board voied a final adjournment on the 17th of November. It had been in session twenty days.

A New Mode of Estimating Art. We have a well known and deservedly esteemed landscape painter here, Mr. V., (not Horace Vernet) about whom the gossips tell an amusing story. This artist invents pretty pie-Hires ot lambs trimmed with blue ribbons, or browsing cattle with bells round their necks, which greatly hit the fancy of our retired grocers and bakers, who desire to display their taste by establishing a "gallery." It might be imagined, that a painter would avail himself of his reputation in getting up rural views, to augmenl his prices; but Mr. V. is not a starving artist, and is imbued with commercial notions of a singular, but perfectly conscientious character. Ho sells his pictures, as it were, by weight nnd measure; that is to say, so much a sheep, so much a cow, so much a donkey, so much a stump, so much a hill, &o. By means of this fixed tariff, there is no possibility ot the purchaser being imposed on, and it only requires on the part of the latter, a moderate knowledge of Ihe first principles of mathematics, lo contemplate precisely what his contemplated prize is to cost. One of the most striking examples of the manuer in whioh this clever system works so say my gossips is of very recent occurrence. The artist had Bold one of his animal piotures, at the price of 2,500f. a comfortablo sum, certainly; but exaotly its value. Shortly afterward, tho purchaser paid Mr. V. another visit, to order a companion piece to his first acquisition. Ho found, on the easel, just finished, a painting which struck him as being the very thing a perfect match to ihe other, bolh in dimensions and subject. "I'll take that picture," said the amateur, emphatically. "You can have it," replied the artist; "but not at the same price as the oiher. I ask 8,000 francs fur this one." "Indeed 1 The size is just the samens the one I recently took, nnd I don't really see " "You are right about the tut;" rejoined Mr. V., "but this picture has two extra goats I" Hereupon the visitor grew a little warm, and even ventured to pooh I pooh I but the painter, who is of Dutch extraction, refused lo yield. All the would-be buyer hnd lo do was to count the animnls. There they were. The figures were perfectly plain, and if the amateur knew simple addition, he would see that they amounted to 8,000 francs, precisely. Everybody was aware thnt there was only one price, &o., &c. But the visitor was obstinate, too. He was a little, wiry, pig-headed grocer, retired from business, a subscriber to the Steele, and not to be convinced of anything; not even that black is black. The two were on tho point of separating, in violent disgust with each other, when the artist was suddenly struck with a luminous idea. "Come back here in a week," said ho, "nnd the picture shall be yours." The work was already framed and varnished in Bhort, entirely finished. The painter took off the frame, washed away the varnish, seized his brush, and surmounted the difficulty, in less than a day's labor, by blotting out the two goats. By this ingenious means, the patron got just the worth of his 2o00 francs, and the artist did not reoede from fixed and immutable principles, of preoise measure and no more.

One song at tho Schiller Festival in the Crystal Palace, at Sydenham, was sung by one thousand male and female voices, before anaudienoe of twenty thousand people.

CONTINUED FROM YESTERDAY. In rlne time Governor Wilson Shannon mnrte the appointments required utulor Senator Smith's resolution, nml in fiocordnnce with the law Authorizing a Bonrd of Equalization, llio gentlemen who had accepted met at Columbus on the 25lli day of January, 1841. Meantime, liowevor, an election for members of the Legislature and Slate officers bad taken place. Thomas Corwin had been chosen Governor, and ft majority of the members of the House wero Whigs, while a majority of tho Senators were Democrats. On the 18th of January, James T. Worlhing-ton ofstfon ooAinty, moved that the Governor bo authorized to (ill all vacancies which hnd occurred, or might oocur, in tho Board of Equalization. That motion, at the suggestion of Crawford Welch of lielmont, was amended so as to instruct the Judiciary committee to inquire into the expediency of reporting a bill to legalize the appointments which Governor Shannon had made on the 1st of January. Albert A. Bliss of Lorain, chairman of the Judiciary eommittee, reported a hill constituting a Board of Equalization, which confirmed I he appointments of members who had nccepted, and tilled two vacancies. That bill was warmly discussed. Speeches were made upon it, which excited bitter remarks, on questions involving many political differences, but on the 2,3th of January it passed the House by a vote of 35 lo 33. When it went to t lie Senate it was referred lo the Judiciary committee. On the 11th of February William I. Thomas, of Miami, chairman of that committee, reported it back with amendments, among which was one increasing the amount ($2 per day,) which had been fixed by the law of 18-10 as the pay of the members of the Board. Tho report was accepted, and the next day the Setate passed the bill as amended, by a vote of 23 to 9. The amendment providing for an increase of pay was in accordance with n memorial sent to the Legislature on motion of Felix Kentck, of Koss county, praying for wages "more adequate to the responsible and arduous duties" required from members of the Board, which notwithitanditig the tribulation in the Legislature respecting it, was regularly in session. The House promptly rejected the Senate's amendments, by a vote of 4'J lo 12. The Senate insisted the House adhered and asked for a committee of conference. This requeot the Senate granted. George W. Holmes of Hamilton county, and William I. Thomas of Miami, represented the Senate, and Wm. L. Perkins of Lake, Charles Brough of Fairfield, and A. A. Bliss of Lorain, the House. They could not agree. Each committee reported lo its respect ive department, in favor of adhorance to the positions which had been taken, and both reports were accepted. Thereupon the Board of Equalization, ctvntcd under tho resolution of M ircli21sl, 1810. was permitted to continue its deliberations without Legislative interference of any kind. It was composed us follows: THIRD BOARD OF EQUALIZATION. For the Senatorial District composed of the counties of Cuyahoga, James S. Clark; Columbiana nnd Carroll, Fisher A. Blocksom ; Geauga und Ashtabula, Daniel J. French; Richland, Geo. W. Bull; Jetfetson, John S. Cock; Belmont, Robert II. Miller; Muskingum, Robert Mitchell; 1'erry. Morgan and Washington, Samuel A. Barker; Franklin aud Pickaway, William Gill; Ross, Pike and Jaokson. Felix Ronick; Athens, Meigs, Lawrenoo and Gallia, George House; Sciolo, Brown and Adams, William Rohbins; Clermont, Thomas J. Buchanan; Highland and Clinton, Jaoob Hoagland; Clark, Logan and Champaign, John Shelly ; Hamilton, I). T. Disney und L. M. Gwynne; Medina and Lorain, Edwin Byington; Huron, Ebenczer Warner; Trum-b tll,Eli Bald wine;Poit rgylo-eph Lyman; Wayne, Benjamin Jones; Knox, Coshocton and Holmes; II. U. Curtis; Tuscarawas and Harrison, James Miller; Licking, John Youtz; Fairfield and Hocking, William McClung; Warren, John Woods; Butler and Preble, George Keeling; Fayette, Madison and Green, Aaron Harlan; Stark, Alexander MoCully; Medina, Darke aud Mercer, John S. Mallory; Marion, Delaware, Crawford and Union, Oeo. W, Sharp; Seneca and Sandusky, Philip J. Price; Montgomery, JefTerson Patterson; Guernsey and Monroe, William Armstrong; Williams, Lucas, &o., S. S. Sprnguo. Auditor of Slate, John Brough. Armstrong, Rcnick, Harlan, Gwynne, Woods nnd Curtis were appointed by Governor Thos. Oorwin to fill vacancies. The meetings of this Board wero held in the Court House. David T. Disney was elected President, and John Breugh Soorelary. Amotion to elect a Sergeant-atArms, made hy Mr. McCully, was voted down, but, on motion of Mr. Keeling, James S. White was chosen Doorkeeper, "with pay the same as that of the members." On the 215th of January a committee, composed of Mr. Buchanan, Mr. House, Mr. Jones, Mr. Barker, and Mr.Blocksom, reported rules, which were aoccpted. A committco, of which Mr. Barker, Mr. Kesling, Mr. lleniok, Mr. Lyman, and Mr. Sprague, were the members, on the 2d of February, recommended Franklin county as a standard for the graduation of values. Their recommendation was accepted, and the returns from the County Bo irds were taken up In the alphabet!,! order of the counties. When the abstracts, as equalized for the counties, hnd been agreed upon, by a vote of 28 to 7, Mr. Curtis moved to make the aggregate $100,- 000,000, which was adopted. Mr. Brough wished town property excluded from the effuct of that motion. A proposition for that purpose was rejected. Mr. Curtis suggested a committee of three to deduct lo per cent, from the valuation in each county rejected by a vole of 17 to 18. Mr. Warner then moved that the origin al aggregate as given from the abstracts, be agreed upon, and Mr. Curtis' resolution be re- ciuded, which wus adopted by 18 lo 17. The opposition to this motion was vigorous, and at a subsequent meeting, Mr. McCully moved a select committee to reduce the aggregate 15 per cent., which prevailed by a vote o' 20 lo Hi. .McUilly, lortzand turns were appointed tbat committee. Mr. Brough then presented a pro test, from wlncli it is proper to make a brief extract: PROTEST. "The undersigned respectfully protest against the resolution of this Board lo reduce 15 per cent, upon the aggregate valuation of real estate in he slate of Ohio, as raised by tho Board, from ninety-five to one hundred and Bixteeu millions, for tho reason that it is calculated to render more unjust and unequal our already ill-balan ced system of taxation. "It injures all holders of personal property made taxable by law, whether landholders or not, inasmuch as that class of property being uppraised at very nearly if not quite its actual cash value, pays a greater proportion of taxes than the lauded esiato which is valued nt from one-eighlh to one-third its actual worth, and this is proven from the fact appearing upon the public record, that in the last year the personal property which does not hold ratio of value as one to twenty with the real estate, paid nearly oue lourtu ot the taxes levied by the State. "It reduces at the same time, and in the ratio, the tax upon the luxuries of the State, tho Biately dwellings upon farms, and the princ-ly mansions in towns und cities, which aro appraised nt the low rates affixed upon the lands, and imposes the burthens created upon the less fortunate and poorer classes of community, by taxing at full value (he necessaries of life in the cattle with which the earth is tilled; it is a reduction for the benefit of the rich at the expense of the poor for the advantngo of lnxury, to the injury of the rcul log cabin anterestsof the State." This protest was signed by R. II. Miller, Geo. Kesling, Jas. C. Hoagland, Jas. Lyman, Jas. Miller, John Brough, Auditor of Stale, John Woods, Wm. Armstrong, Juo. S. Cock, A. Ilarlun, Geo. Houso. The report of the commit tee appointed to make the 15 percent reduction, against which tho gentlemen just named protested, was adopted by a vote of '22 to 11, late at night on tho 22d of February. A recess was taken till o o clock the next morning, when, in a few minutes, the bus-ines of the Board was finished and it adjourned, having been in session 21 days. One of its latest acts was to reject a proposition involving a reflection upon the House of Representatives, which refused to increase tho pay of members. Mr. Bull offered Iho following: Resolved, That the Board acknowledge with profound gratitude, the receipt from the State Treasury, of the very liberal compensation, provided by law for their services. Resolved, That we will ap rove the passage of law providing a similar compensation for the services of members of other deliberative assemblies.On motion of Mr. Tontz, the resolutions were indefinitely postponed. The following statement exhibits the result of he labors of the Board. It is not as complete ns the previous statements, but contains all the aggregates, which the Board authorized to be published with its proceedings. THIRD VALUATION.

On the fourth day of December, 1815, Alfred Kelly, member of Ihe Senate for Franklin, Madison and Clark counties, moved that, whereas, to pay expenses of Government; to pay the interest on the public debt; and to support common schools, imposed heavy taxes, and as the existing system operated unjustly, and with gross inequality, therefore the General Assembly should resolve that it was expedient to adopt a system which would impose on both real and personal property, according to its true value, on equal per centum of taxation. On motion of Dowty Utter of Brown and Clermont, Mr. Kelley's resolution was so amended that it included "loans of banking institu tions," and was then i dnpted by a vote of 21 to 13. The Finance committee of the Senate was composed of Alfred Kelley of Franklin, F. W Thornhill of Guernsey and Coshocton, Amos E. Wood of Sandusky, Seneca and Crawford, Levi Cox of Wayne, and John Welsh of Athens aud Meigs counties, senate bill No, U5, "for levying taxes on all the property of the Stale according to its true value,. wits reported by Mr. Kelley, on the 6th of Janu ary, 1840. It was elaborately discussed, and was the text for searching reviews of Ihe tax policy of tho Slate in the public journals, as well us in tlie Legislature, uti i tie tain nt reo-ruary, after having been amended in many par-1 tioulars, it was adopted by the Senale yeas 17, f nays lo. On tho tame day it was read I ho first lime in the House, was briefly discussed in committee of the whole, nnd whs referred to the Finance committee, which comprised Benjamin S. Cowen of Belmont, Edsou B. Olds of Pickaway, David Harvey of Cuyahoga, Charles Reem-elin of Hamilton, and Timothy R. Stanley of Scioto and Lawrence. This committeo recommended amendments, which the House approved, and on the 24th of February it adopted the amended bill by a vote of 85 to 20. The Senate was not pleased with the Houso amendments; committees of conference were accordingly usked for, Bnd appointed for the Senate, Kelley, Welch and Thornhill for the House, Cowen, Stanley, and Reenieliu. They agreed upon a compromise, to which both Houses consented on the 27th of February. " Kelley's Tax1 Bill" became a law on tho 2d day of March, 1846. It provided that a Slate Board of Equalization should be appointed by the Legislature then i.t session ihnt Board to consist of some competent and suitable pet son in each Senatorial d strict, who had been a resident of tho Slate ten years, and of the disiriol five years. Thirty days after their appointment the members were to be notified by the Governor, who was authorized to fill all vacancies. The Auditor of State wus declared lo bo tx-officxo a member. This Board was required to meet nt Columbus on the fourth Monday of October, 1840. The members were each to take nn oath to discharge their dmy faithfully, nnd were forbidden to raiBe or reduce the value of poperty more than $5,000,-0110, as contained in the abstracts returned lo the State Auditor from County Boards of Equal ization which were to consist of the County Commissioners, the Auditor, and Lhelriot Asses, sors. The members of the Stale Board were to be paid $2 per day while in session, and $2 for every twenty five miles traveled by them to and from I lie Capital. It was further provided in the law that overy sixth year aflor 1840, tho property of the Slate should be equalized. On Saturday, February 28th, 1840, Alfred Kelly presented a resolution to the Senate for the appointment or a state board of bqualiza-lion. From the list of names which he proposed, Senator Thornhill moved lo strike out that of John Hull, of Guernsey county, and insert Jesse Meredith, of Coshooton; which motion was adop- NUMBER 194. r- . - , - -j ted. Mr. Kelly's resolution was then approved. When it was taken up in the House, T. W. Tipton, of Guernsey county, moved to restore the name of John Hall. Mr. Tipton's motion did not prevail. Joseph Will-ford of Wayne county, moved to strike out the name of Cyrus Spink and insert tbat of Henry Swarlz; which was adopted. Subsequently Mr. Spink's name was restored, nnd tbat of J. M. Bell Inserted in the place of John Hall. In his message to Ihe General Assembly, Deo. 1st, 1840, Governor Mordecai Bartley commended the principle of the revenue system, but thought the law of 1840 defective in some of its points. He thought the revenue system "ought not to hecomo a matter of controversy between the political parties in Ihe Slate, nor a ground for a struggle between the holders of different classes of property." roVRTIt IOABD or tqVAMZATtON, Allen Trlnihle Highland county.

According to law, these gentlemen met in the Senate chamber, on the 20th day of October, 1840, look the prescribed oath of offioe and proceeded lo business. John Johnston was chosen temporary Chairman. On motion of Mr. Vance, the Board then elected a permanent Chairman Allen Trimble being chosen on the second ballot. John Woods was elected Secretary. Tho rules of the Slate Senate were adopted for the government of the Buard, and it then proceeded to consider the abstracts laid before it by the Auditor of State. On the 10th of November, Mr. Millikin moved that a committee of seven be appointed to report a plan on whioh the property of the State should be equalized. His motion was adopted, nnd Vinton, Spangler, Stillwell, Leonard, Boll, Este, and Webb were appointed said committee. Mr. Vinton reported on tho following day. On motion of Mr. Woods, the report was amended so that the Board declared that when the valuation was fixed upon the lands of eaoh county, the total increase or decrease upon lands, should be added or deducted from the aggregate of the valuation of the lands and towns, as returned, and the per cent, of such increase or decrease upon the whole real property of the county, should be taken as tho per cent, of the increase or decrease to be added or deducted from the whole real property of the county, as returned. After much discussion, it was resolved, on the 14th i f November, ou motion of Mr. Miller, that the Secretary should make a calculation for per cents to be added or deducted which would make tho total valuo of real property 5123,000,000, "as noarns might be without leaving a fractional per cent in any ouse." These calculations were duly made and approved, and the Board voied a final adjournment on the 17th of November. It had been in session twenty days.

A New Mode of Estimating Art. We have a well known and deservedly esteemed landscape painter here, Mr. V., (not Horace Vernet) about whom the gossips tell an amusing story. This artist invents pretty pie-Hires ot lambs trimmed with blue ribbons, or browsing cattle with bells round their necks, which greatly hit the fancy of our retired grocers and bakers, who desire to display their taste by establishing a "gallery." It might be imagined, that a painter would avail himself of his reputation in getting up rural views, to augmenl his prices; but Mr. V. is not a starving artist, and is imbued with commercial notions of a singular, but perfectly conscientious character. Ho sells his pictures, as it were, by weight nnd measure; that is to say, so much a sheep, so much a cow, so much a donkey, so much a stump, so much a hill, &o. By means of this fixed tariff, there is no possibility ot the purchaser being imposed on, and it only requires on the part of the latter, a moderate knowledge of Ihe first principles of mathematics, lo contemplate precisely what his contemplated prize is to cost. One of the most striking examples of the manuer in whioh this clever system works so say my gossips is of very recent occurrence. The artist had Bold one of his animal piotures, at the price of 2,500f. a comfortablo sum, certainly; but exaotly its value. Shortly afterward, tho purchaser paid Mr. V. another visit, to order a companion piece to his first acquisition. Ho found, on the easel, just finished, a painting which struck him as being the very thing a perfect match to ihe other, bolh in dimensions and subject. "I'll take that picture," said the amateur, emphatically. "You can have it," replied the artist; "but not at the same price as the oiher. I ask 8,000 francs fur this one." "Indeed 1 The size is just the samens the one I recently took, nnd I don't really see " "You are right about the tut;" rejoined Mr. V., "but this picture has two extra goats I" Hereupon the visitor grew a little warm, and even ventured to pooh I pooh I but the painter, who is of Dutch extraction, refused lo yield. All the would-be buyer hnd lo do was to count the animnls. There they were. The figures were perfectly plain, and if the amateur knew simple addition, he would see that they amounted to 8,000 francs, precisely. Everybody was aware thnt there was only one price, &o., &c. But the visitor was obstinate, too. He was a little, wiry, pig-headed grocer, retired from business, a subscriber to the Steele, and not to be convinced of anything; not even that black is black. The two were on tho point of separating, in violent disgust with each other, when the artist was suddenly struck with a luminous idea. "Come back here in a week," said ho, "nnd the picture shall be yours." The work was already framed and varnished in Bhort, entirely finished. The painter took off the frame, washed away the varnish, seized his brush, and surmounted the difficulty, in less than a day's labor, by blotting out the two goats. By this ingenious means, the patron got just the worth of his 2o00 francs, and the artist did not reoede from fixed and immutable principles, of preoise measure and no more.
